  1. morrie has that from factory
  2. what needles are you using? you may need ones with less taper - i.e you are spot on tuning at idle, but with a bit of tit its overfueling edit - lol jets further edit exhaust blown out somewhere?
  3. also - i understand if you ditch the oil "injector" and run premix you can get a couple kph out of it can also convert the oil tank to the reserve tank
  4. havnt really looked into it personally i would slam an 80cc piston on there and put stiffer springs in the clutch thats just about it really - maybe a tuned exhaust modded to fit EDIT: DAMMIT IM GETTING PERFORMANCE DREAMS ON SOMETHING I SHOULD JUST GET GOING
  5. oh btw will that head down http://mopedhq.blogspot.com/2008/11/something-other-than-me-getting-in.html
  6. looks like the fz50 (im sure they came out as 80cc too) much better and tunable than the fa50 from what i understand (can also regear them alot easier, slam on a lz80 i think it is (quad bike) carb and doo dorts) Edit: i have a manual for the fz50 here (also known as the suzy)
  7. what you want is the ft(or maybe fs) 80cc engine. Alot more powerful than the fa50 and can be tuned moreso bolts right on
  8. reminds me of a story did you know you can get from hamilton to raglan on 1 tank of gas on an fa50
  9. about 3-4 years ago i spied an ad in the local trade and exchange for a suzuki scooter - going $50 so i thought to myself, that would probably be mean to dort around uni on when i start drive to the out skirts of whakatane to see it. Get there and its a bit rough, paint is tired and the seat was missing its cover, then the guy says "oh its not actually going, my cousin borrowed it and it hasnt been going since" I figure, hey i may as well look it over its a 2 stroke how hard can it be. Offer the guy $20, he takes it. Get it home and start looking it over - kick start wont engage (at this point i took the gearbox cover off to figure it all out) turnout if you adjust the rear brake on these incorrectly it prevents you from activating the kick start "clutch". 3 kicks and we had her going. Then filled out the form, got numberplate and rego I had it uni for my first year - mean for runs to the supermarket or whatever + uses no fuel. I later made a red pleather seat cover and drilled another hole in the exhaust for performance i then sold this on just after i got my vt250 My brother about 6 months after i got mine, got this one so races were a daily occurance - his has an up jetted carb and polished engine/crankcase + hes lighter than me so he had a 5kph top speed advantage. anyway, this one is currently sitting in my shed. He brought it over with him when he started uni saying "its hard to start" so i had a look at it Thats why its hard to start Circlip came out and destroyed the piston, rings and bore. Bolted a new set on and shes ding ding dinging again latest acquisition is this being an "old suzuki" i assumed it was an fa50. later this image was added confirming the fact i figure il have it going in quick order (if it wants a new piston and bore i think il pay the extra $20 and get an 80cc kit ) put it in the system, tehn flick on discussion of all things fa50 are welcome
  10. get them from fastener place - in stainless i think lownslow got some not long ago
  11. get some good penetrating fluid, spray it on the effected area/entire car once a day for a week everything should be good and loose by then - will take a week to try force them out regardless
  12. this i would say they could make up anything you wanted too
  13. sweet, it has all become clear now
  14. hmm, i was thinking bashing it/squeezing it in a vice - but that idea does sound interesting
  15. or in this case im building a set of manifolds for twin carbs (1 1/8th inch SU's) the intake port is about an inch square and the carb is 1 1/8th inch round. Now i am thinking just a piece of pipe will suffice (each will be separate for now) but are their any tricks on how i can match the two up?
  16. sweet just got 7 flanges cut (seperated the exhaust and inlet and plus 2 for the carb end) all cut from 10mm steel $65 including postage big ups to reautomotive
  17. dear sir light truck tyres are oldschool as fuck yours sincerely Tortron
  18. being a mitsi most other alternators from that era are probably the same
  19. have a ring around the local auto electricians, get them to test it to see what is wrong may or may not be repairable or measure the mounts on the alternator and try find out its output - then hit up a wreckers for something similar
